This lecture did boggle my mind and I had to go away and let it sink in for a bit afterwards. I don't find diagrams very enthralling so it was pretty hard to concentrate and follow. However, I do understand the relevance of what was said and as I sometimes struggle with research it was important!
Things I took away from the lecture:
"Process is more important than outcome".
"Success comes from having brighter ideas closer together".
"Lots of fast possibilities rather than one precious idea".
The more outings I go on, books and blogs I read, galleries I visit and stuff I watch and listen to, the better; ideas will come easier if I am absorbing more.
Combine systematic, intuitive and stimulated approaches of research to get a really good outcome; get lots of inspiration, then narrow it down and begin to systematically research.
Variety and quantity of ideas is important!
Quantitative research: data, numericals, stats etc.
Qualitative research: beliefs, feelings, opinions, subjective abstract concepts etc.
You are researching because you want to find out about something new!
